SUPERABUNDANT FAVOR
But then Law came in
to expand the trespass
and make it apparent.
But where sin increased
God’s unmerited favor
superabounded.
So that as sin reigned
in death,
even so grace ( unearned
favor) might reign through
righteousness to eternal life
through Jesus Christ or Lord.
( Romans 5.20 and 21).
OUR RESPONSE TO
GOD’S SUPERABUDANT
FAVOR
is to yield ourselves as a
living sacrifice to God
as we shall see in the
following verses.
(Those of us who were
baptized into Christ Jesus
were baptized into His death.
We were buried therefore
with Him through baptism into
death, so that just as Christ was
raised from the dead by the
glory of the Father, even so
we also should walk in newness
of life.
( Romans 6.1-3).
Meditate and pray on the immense
significance and impact of this
new birth and new life.
